• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Per this rule:

This rule is now officially amended to allow non-thunderstorm and non-tropical cyclone posts in Weather & Chasing. You may discuss winter storms, unusual temperatures, model performance, and so forth as long as you use existing threads if any are present. If it involves chase events, thunderstorms, or tropical cyclones, you must post in the Chase Reports or Chase Forecasts forum or risk warnings/suspension.

Quite a winter storm scenario is unfolding in SW Texas this evening. Moderate to heavy snow is widespread currently around the I-10 corridor in Texas... with Heavy Snow reducing visibilities to a quarter mile in visibility. In Fort Stockton, roadways are already reported snowcovered with heavy snow continuing to fall.

Heavy snow and winter storm warnings are in effect for this entire area.

Any Texans chasing this?

I think you meant to say SW Texas. SE TX is near 50 with rain.
 
Sweet, a Winter Weather Area.

Yeah, Im sure Jeff meant SW Texas, seeing as that is where all the warnings are. No big deal..

As I said, the area lit up with warnings.. No Jeff, Im not chasing it, but I wish we could get some up here!!
 
3-5" commonplace in SW Texas especially in the Fort Stockton area which had quite a blast of wintery weather. It seems the strongest area of forcing has moved to the East - but liquid equivalent of 0.57" has fallen and 4-5" in the Fort Stockton area at last report. Predictions of 2-3" more are expected overnight - definately quite a situation down in SW Texas, and certainly is early for this kind of an event in that part of the country.
